Little did he know that his destiny lay within these words. The Deliverance Tabernacle of the Apostolic Faith began on the 2nd Sunday in July, 1979 in the home of Sister Nancy Walker of Red Oak, VA; 19 people were present. The first sermon preached was, “Our God is Standing By.” On our next meeting date, Pastor Lykes preached, “Build Your Hopes on Things Eternal, Hold to God’s Unchanging Hand.” There were 21 people were present and among us was the Rev. Edwin G. Hall Sr., who consented to serve as Assistant Pastor of the church. On the 3rd service, we met at 11am at the 2nd Pentecostal Church of Clover, which was pastored by Rev. Chandler. Services were arranged so that we were able to meet each week for Tuesday and Thursday night services and Sunday morning worship. We met there until winter. Because of the heating expenses, Pastor and his members attended his home church, The Greater Mayfield Apostolic Church of South Boston, VA until weather conditions were warmer. It is now 1981, and time to launch out into the deep, services resumed at the Masonic Lodge in Clover. Our contact person was the Rev. Moses Forster. Little did we know his sister Margaret Durham would become one of our Church Mothers. It was during this time the church blossomed. God sent to us Rev. & Mrs. Burrell, Sister Ella Brooks, Sister Shirley Brooks, Sister Clara Stanfield, Rev. Tony Cooper, Brother Ricky Watson, and Sister Audrey Ford. Rev. Burrell through a dream given to our Pastor before he and his wife arrived was anointed by God as the Associate Pastor. They remain to this day. He was installed as such in August 1981. His first message was “The Good Shepard.” A message we will never forget. Rev. Cooper came to us and conducted our first revival. He preached such sermons as “Caught in the Middle of a Mess; Lost Without a Cause; and The Devil Wants Me Dead or Alive.” However, his hallmark sermon will always be remembered, “If Sin is Your Hang-up, then Hell Will Be Your Hang-Out.” The Rev. Thomas Jenkins came to us and preached a message, “Never Say Die” and these messages remained in our hearts and continued to pave the way to our destiny. It was during this move of the spirit in 1981, that the Deliverance Tabernacle was purchased by the Virginia State Council of the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World, Inc. The church purchased for our home was The St. Luke Episcopal Church of Clover. Pastor Lykes preached his hallmark sermon “Get Your Stuff Together, It’s Moving Time.” We remained there until 1983. Pastor Lykes went through a great trail which tested his faith. He had to make certain decisions that would reveal to the world and those around him, whether he had been called by God or not. The choice he made was to obey the voice of the Lord and Stand Still to see his salvation. After testing times were over and the people won the Victory, organizational changes were made. We joined the Power House of Deliverance Churches of the Apostolic Faith, Inc of Greensboro, NC where Bishop J.H. Covington served as the Chief Apostle and Pastor. It was during the Covington administration that this edifice was purchased.


On April 2, 1991, Bishop Covington went to sleep, resting from his labor here and to await the general resurrection, when the dead in Christ shall rise first, and we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. At that time, saints from every nation will come forth and in that number The Deliverance Tabernacle of the Apostolic Faith, South Boston, VA will be recognized as the Bride of Christ, along with the Tabernacle, The Christ Church of Deliverance of Statesville, NC. We will be side by side, marching in our white robes having been washed in the Blood of the Lamb. Then no one can deny that we are the visible splendor of God’s Kingdom; The Elect of God full of Glory, wearing the Royal Garments of the Kingdom. On the first Wednesday in February 1994, Christ Church of Deliverance was established and held its first service at the Holiday Inn Express on Sullivan Road. Our first message was “A More Excellent Ministry.” Everyone at that service remained except two people. The first Sunday service was held at the Holiday Inn on Garner Bagnal Boulevard and the Apostolic Women’s Society was in charge. From the Holiday Inn we began having services at the Bristol Community Center until we moved our services to Interfaith Deliverance Church on Western Avenue with the late Bishop Benny Davis and saints. We remained at Interfaith until we purchased our new home the Race Street United Methodist Church, which was dedicated on April 5, 1996 by His Grace, The Honorable Bishop Jesse Delano Ellis, II and The United Pentecostal Churches of Christ. At that time our name was changed to Christ Cathedral of Deliverance. We remained members of The United Pentecostal Churches of Christ until the year 2000 when we began forming the Apostolic Faith Churches of Deliverance. And on February 19, 2008, at our First Annual Holy Convocation we named Christ Cathedral of Deliverance as our Headquarters Cathedral. On Saturday, February 23 at 12:00 noon, The Service of Apostolic Installation for our Presiding Prelate was conducted by Chief Apostle Sylvester Davis Johnson, of the True Vine Churches of Deliverance International (TVCOD), with headquarters in Winston-Salem, NC, of which Bishop Lykes serves as the First Vice Presiding Bishop and Dean of the College of Bishops. This is our 30th Year in Ministry, it is good to know that 30 spiritually means the BLOOD. Therefore, we declare for this house covered by the blood and blanket of love that will spread over our entire church family, because all we have is God. His love has already given us the character of His Holiness. We realize that we are destined for greatness and the Conquest lies ahead. Therein answering the age old question, “Who has seen this House in its first glory and how do you see it now?” We see it, Terrible as an Army with Banners; Glistening in the noon day Sun; Leaning on the Arm of her Beloved. And His name is above, every name, Jesus. He is the highest ruler, with all authority over every Power.

! ! ! Centermost on the cover is the Coat of Arms of the Apostolic Faith Churches of Deliverance (AFCOD). This crest was created by His Grace, Apostle Carl Daniel Lykes, Sr., our Establishmentarian. This crest represents the Apostolic Faith Churches of Deliverance obeying the Great Commission, carrying the gospel into the four corners of the earth. In the top left corner is the Crown of Righteousness that awaits the children of God if we will remain faithful and true to our faith in Christ Jesus. At the bottom left is fire which represents the spirit of Holiness, for our God is a consuming fire. According to the scriptures, our faith and works will be tried by fire and if they come out as pure gold we are saved and ready to receive our reward…… this fire also signifies zealousness which rest in the hearts of our membership, to be about our Fathers business until He comes. The top right corner reminds us that on a hill far away stood an old rugged cross on which our Saviour died and where we first saw the light of our salvation. It also expresses how the Love of God transcends our human understanding and allows us to strive in Christ likeness. The cross also denotes the unity of heaven and earth. The bottom of the cross – earth, the top – God, however before you can reach God there must be relationship – man to man. In the lower right corner is the Lion of the tribe Judah that shall break every chain and give to us the victory again and again. The lion also speaks of the bravery, strength, ferocity, and valor exhibited by all who follow Christ and except the salvation which he gives. As you continue your study of the crest, let us approach with deepest reverence, the heart of our ministry, THE ARK OF THE COVENANT. Put off your shoes, for if any place be sacred, surely this we now tread is holy ground. The Ark of the Covenant representing the presence of Almighty God, touching every aspect of our ministry speaks also of preservation. Just as the Ark preserved, God’s precepts to Israel, so the Lord Jesus, as our everlasting covenant, has reserved for us the title deed to our salvation in heaven. Atop the crest is the Bishop’s Miter, symbolizing the Acts 2: 3-4 experience; the Key and the Shepherd’s Staff (Crozier) are the support for the Shield of Faith on which the Arms rest. The flowing stole from the sides of the Shield represent the yokemanship of all who serve with the Primate in the promulgation of holiness. The banner on which the Coat of Arms Rest is inscribed: EKKLESIA TIKTO PURINOS being interpreted, “A Church Meeting The Needs of a Needy World.” “Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.” 1Timothy 1:17

"#$!6$.*!'2!"#$!%&'()*$! /.1*!3.5+$*!J9K$(>!61L! THE EAGLE is a divine bird that flew above the storms, while below there are only sorrows, dangers, and distress. It is a swift bird strong and powerful, never becoming weary. THE CROWN denotes royal or seigniorial authority, defender of a fortress, token of civic honor; one who first mounted the breach in the walls of a fortress, our establishmentarian also strives for the crown of righteousness laid up for the saints, and has determined in his mind to endure to the end, so that he too can Crown Christ Jesus Lord of All. THE SHOFAR is an instrument made from the horn of a ram or other kosher animal. It was used in ancient Israel to announce the New Moon and call people together. It was also blown on Rosh Hashanah, marking the beginning of the New Year, signifying both the need to wake up to the call to repentance. It is to rouse the Divine in the listener. It must be an instrument in its natural form and naturally hollow, through whom sound is produced by human breath, which God breathes into human beings. This pure, and natural sound, symbolizes the lives it calls the saints to lead. The bend in the shofar is supposed to represent how a human heart, in true repentance, bends before the Lord. It reminds the pious how Abraham, offering his son Isaac in sacrifice, was reprieved when God decided that Abraham could sacrifice a ram instead.

THE WORD OF GOD WITH THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE denotes our Chief Pastor preaches the Old and New Testaments with Calvary bridging the gap. The Old Testament was types and shadows of things to come and is just as important today as it ever was. The New Testament reveals the wonderful works of God, for God was in Jesus, reconciling the world to Himself. THE CANNON MOUNTED ON A CARRIAGE PROPER taken from the crest of the Lykes family which depicts peace and sincerity; signifies truth, loyalty, protection, security, along with military fortitude. Its origin: England. GUARDED BY A PAIR OF LIONS, which is always recognized as strong, fierce, and majestic. It was the royalist of animals. It represents bravery, strength, ferocity, valor, and dauntless courage. The lion of Judah is often portrayed with a partner, the two lions rampant, standing on their hind haunches, their front paws perched on the top of the tablets of the Covenants, guarding it. RESTING ON VINES is direct response and obedience to our Lord Jesus who said, “I am the true vine and my Father is the husbandman.” He also stated, “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. These vines signify strong and lasting friendship with Jesus. The vine denotes a person of noble nature, strength, bravery, and alertness. One


who is high spirited, ingenious, quick-witted and judicious; true magnanimity and strength of mind. Lastly it signifies protection, which sums up our leader in character, “A man after God’s own heart.” THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE COLORS USED IN THE CREST: !">#$Q$!/?/8"%'+=$&?#$/>/;&+'"?$"3$+5/$E'?#$ R/#$Q$4&88'"8$"8$E&8+=8$ .>1/$Q$S81+5$&?#$>"=&>+=$ !8//?$Q$9"D/($N"=$&?#$>"=&>+=$'?$>";/$ T&8""?$Q$P&+'/?+$'?$<&++>/($&?#$=/+$;'0+"8'"1%$$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $
